Vicki Wright, the Illinois 3rd District Appellate Court Judge in Prophetstown, surveys the damage done to her historic office from the July 15 blaze that swept through downtown Prophetstown. The building, built in 1902 and originally designed to be a bank, was designed with a large firewall that was able to stop the blaze. "If this firewall wasn't here, that fire would've spread to the end of the block." Wright said. Although undamaged by fire, extensive water damage and ensuing mold meant the building had to be gutted. "I know it's just an office, but after a while it started to feel like home."
